A pseudobladder is formed by inoculating rats s.c. with a combination of rat bladder fragments and air. Within 1 month a cyst is produced that is lined completely by normal-appear ing urothelium. The heterotopic pseudobladder persists for as long as 6 months. In some 6-month-old bladder walls, foci of bone formation are found in the stroma underlying the urothelium. The lining epithelium at all...

A 16-year-old girl was transferred to the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery because of a spontaneous pneumothorax with prolonged air leakage. Chest computed tomography demonstrated a cystic lesion measuring 2×3 cm and involving the left upper lobe. Left upper lobectomy was performed via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. A pathologic examination of the specimen revealed a mes...

A lung cyst is an air-filled lucent structure surrounded by a thin wall. The presence of multiple intrapulmonary cysts is defined as cystic lung disease. Although cystic lung disease is rare, incidental detection has increased significantly in recent years by screening using computed tomography. There are many conditions that can mimic lung cysts and cause cystic lung disease. Clinical, radiogr...

Hydatidosis is an endemicdisease in Morocco. Localization the pancreas very rare especially when isolated. We report case of a patient admitted emergency room for suppurated pancreatic collection, about 15 cm diameter, resembling fistulized Pseudo-pancreatic cyst, or cystic tumoror hydatid cyst. In spite initial empirical antibiotic therapy, unfavorable evolution led us to perform exploratory l...

Azygos vein aneurysm is a rare cause of a posterior or paratracheal mediastinal mass. Trauma or conditions causing elevated flow or pressure in the azygos system, such as cardiac failure or cirrhosis of the liver are secondary causes of aneurysm of the azygos vein. We report a case of asymptomatic saccular aneurysm of the azygos vein in a 45-year-old man with blunt minor chest trauma. The azygos...

objective: the ortho keratinized odontogenic cyst (ooc) is a rare lesion originates from dental lamina and clinically, it may be mistaken for many other odontogenic cysts and tumors. microscopically, it should be distinguished from kcot because of differences in biologic behavior and histologic features.   case: an interesting case of ooc arising in the edentulous mandibular right first premola...

A 62-year-old female complained of exertional dyspnoea associated with occasional wheeze over the past 10 years. She could not identify any trigger factors such as exposure to cold air, exercise or respiratory tract infections. She was treated empirically for bronchial asthma by her family physician with inhaled Salbutamol and inhaled Fluticasone without much relief in symptoms. She also recent...
